It's not made sure yet, so don't start screaming for either you support the idea or you hate the idea.

Anyway, pretty surprising to me, although I highly doubt Capcom will fork-over its 15-20 years industry of video gaming to Microsoft that easily, consider most of their games are on the Nintendo consoles. (Exception of the X series, which is on the Sony consoles anyway.)

Hmm... now this is interesting.. but I highly doubt Capcom who has made a major success in the Video Game Industry would just hand over their business to microsoft simply because Microsoft wants to buys them out.

Also, this sounds like the same rumor with Apple and Nintendo.

The rumor with Apple and Nintendo was that Apple was going to buy Nintendo, and the other one was that Nintendo was buying out Apple.. the similarities in the rumors with the Apple and Nintendo and Microsoft and Capcom are that they almost look like it came from the same person.

Comparison

Apple <- Successful Computer Company
Nintendo <- Successful Video Game Company

Microsoft <- Computer Company
Capcom <- Successful Video Game Company

and we all know that Nintendo said that "No Nintendo is not buying Apple and Apple is not buying Nintendo" so for those upset about this news, or for those who really think this may be ture, I beg you to not go around believing every rumor you hear... remember its called a rumor for a reason.

LOL, what a stupid rumor, like people that have a Xbox/Xbox360 would want to have rockman games(except me ofcourse

). But I think Rockman should be for Nintendo Gamecube/Wii

What reason would they have for that?
And Capcom is too proud for that anyways~

Capcom would never lower itself like that and get bought out by the worst videogame console makers (in my opinion) And I hardly doubt Microsoft would even want to buy Capcom since Microsoft thinks of itself as "High and mighty" among the rest. #*%^ You Bill Gates!
